“The findings of this study suggest that precardioversion monitoring using smartphone PPG represents an easy-to-use and highly scalable digital intervention that significantly reduced same-day ...

Supraventricular arrhythmias, especially new-onset atrial fibrillation, occur in approximately 8–46% of critically ill patients with sepsis, depending on the population and monitoring intensity.

Advances in left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy have resulted in increasing numbers of adult LVAD recipients in the community. However, device failure, stroke, bleeding, LVAD thrombosis and ...

A 3-day-old preterm neonate (34 + 2 weeks) presented with refractory monomorphic tachycardia (217 bpm; QRS 92 ms) initially diagnosed as SVT based on 1:1 retrograde P-waves. Adenosine administration ...

Every couple of years we come across a new published algorithm or decision tools that attempt to once-and-for-all reliably distinguish between VT and SVT-AC. The most recent such attempt, the Basel ...

Adding a standalone PPG-AF algorithm to these wrist devices might open new possibilities for AF screening and burden assessment. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of a ...

Acute atrial fibrillation is the most common arrythmia treated in the emergency department. Our primary aim was to compare conversion to sinus rhythm between pharmacological cardioversion followed by ...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects 34 million people worldwide and is a leading cause of stroke. A readily accessible means to continuously monitor for AF could prevent large numbers of strokes and ...

aDuke Center for Atrial Fibrillation, Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC, USA Many patients with atrial fibrillation have substantial symptoms despite ...

Guidelines for screening for AF are based on a large‐cluster randomized controlled trial in general practice, of opportunistic pulse taking versus systematic screening with 12‐lead ECG or standard ...
